International disputes frequently involve more than one legal system, foreign parties, international contracts and proceedings before courts or tribunals in different jurisdictions. We advise clients on the legal and strategic issues that arise when a dispute extends beyond India.

Our work includes international litigation strategy, jurisdictional analysis, foreign-court proceedings and coordination with foreign lawyers and professional advisers. We assist clients in understanding the procedural and substantive implications of proceedings in another jurisdiction and in determining how foreign proceedings relate to proceedings, contracts or disputes in India.

Where litigation is pending in more than one jurisdiction, we consider the relationship between the different proceedings and assist in developing an overall strategy. This may involve questions concerning jurisdiction, applicable law, parallel proceedings, interim measures, evidence and enforcement.

Our practice also addresses matters in which international litigation intersects with arbitration, contractual rights or other dispute-resolution mechanisms. In such matters, the forum, jurisdiction clause or arbitration agreement may be central to the broader strategy.

The firm’s experience includes matters involving the legal systems of the United States, United Kingdom, Netherlands, China, Japan, Singapore, Malaysia and Nepal. Where proceedings are required in a foreign jurisdiction, we coordinate with local counsel while remaining involved in the broader strategic and advisory aspects of the matter.
